STALLION MANAGEMENTAt Brightstone Ranch we are set up specifically to care for Stallions. Resident stallions have spacious, open stalls in the Stallion Barn and are turned out daily in large grassy paddocks. We are able to provide individual attention to those stallions that have special requirements to achieve peak breeding efficiency. Non resident stallions are welcome and are afforded everything necessary to compliment their collection needs.

BREEDINGWith advancements in technology, today's breeding methods are continually changing, providing us with new and better ways to be more productive. The breeding technicians on the ranch, together with our attending veterinary staff are reproductive experts that have had great success in getting even some of the most difficult problem mares in foal.

Breeding with frozen semen is a regular occurence here. We have found that attention to even the smallest details can significantly improve breeding success.

EMBRYO TRANSFERWe have been successfully performing embryo transfers since our program began. We have local access to a good supply of recipient mares and can also ship embryos should the need arise.

SEMEN FREEZINGWe can freeze semen on your stallion for both domestic use and international export. We specialize in, and our facility meets all the requirements for export to all foreign countries, including federal quarantine. As a rule, all stallions being frozen for the first time are test frozen, than thawed and examined for motility. Mares will also be test bred with this first freeze to ensure the semen is of sufficient quality to obtain pregnancy.

We welcome your breeding challenges and look forward to meeting you on the farm!
